An artist comes into the district to paint and falls in love with Lucille, Dorothy's sister. Dorothy is interested in the artist on account of her sister's love for him, and she poses. The young mountaineer sees his sweetheart sitting for the artist, and as he is naturally suspicious of the well-dressed city man, he misunderstands the situation. As a result, he has words with Dorothy. The two become estranged. The artist, in searching for wild nooks, discovers a moonshiner's still. The moonshiners believe him to be a U.S. Revenue agent, and they capture him. Lucille carries the news to Dorothy. Dorothy goes to the mountaineer and begs him to save the artist. Believing that his action will insure the happiness of the woman he loves, he consents. The mountaineer surprises the moonshiners and liberates the artist. He then turns the artist over to Dorothy and prepares to return to the cabin. However, instead of Dorothy, Lucille rushes into the artist's arms. For the first time, the mountaineer sees that it is Lucille and not Dorothy who loves the newcomer. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
